I am Just a Wild God, Why are You Kneeling Before the Heavenly Dao?

19: Chapter 19 Little Green Snake Does Big ThingsLin Chuping shook his head, reaching out and gently hooking his finger, and the Little Green Snake floated up involuntarily, landing in his palm.

“Alright, stop playing dead.”

Lin Chuping lightly tapped its head with his finger, a little speechless.

“Where’s that arrogant swagger you had just now? I didn’t say I was going to kill you.”

Seeing that the deity wasn’t angry, the Little Green Snake dared to slightly raise its head, cautiously glancing at Lin Chuping.

“Lord Deity, this little demon was ignorant and fearless just now. Now I know better. In front of you, no demon can be arrogant.”

“Lord Deity, since you’re not killing me, then… can I leave first?”

The Little Green Snake asked tentatively, its tail tip quietly inching towards the door.

Lin Chuping shook his head, grabbing the tip of the Little Green Snake’s tail, holding it completely upside down, and swaying it from side to side.

“Since you dared to scheme against me, you’ll have to pay some price, won’t you?”

The Little Green Snake was dizzy from being shaken. Hearing this, it immediately tensed up, looking up and stammering:

“Lord… Lord Deity, what… what price do you want?”

It was just a small snake, so weak it was practically useless. What good could it be?

Surely the Lord Deity wouldn’t go back on his word and want its life, would he?!

“Don’t worry, I won’t take your life.”

This little snake was truly easy to read. Lin Chuping could actually see various emotions in its round snake eyes.

Interesting!

Look at how stiff its tail tip is. Was he really that scary?

“It’s a very simple matter. From today onwards, you’ll stay in this temple and help out with chores!”

The Little Green Snake froze, then its eyes widened: “Chores?”

“Yes, they’re all very simple tasks. You can definitely handle them.”

Lin Chuping coaxed, “What, unwilling?”

“If you’re unwilling, then it’s a pity…”

Such a young little snake, not even plump enough, could only be made into soup.

The Little Green Snake felt a chill run through its body, shaking its head like a wave: “No, no, no! Willing, willing! This little demon is willing to do chores!”

It wouldn’t dare to be unwilling, and besides, this was a good thing for it.

Following the Lord Deity, it would also be a snake with a master.

In these times, it was too difficult for small wild snakes without a master. Not only did they have to go hungry every day, but they also had to constantly worry about being eaten by other monsters. These days, even cockroaches, rats, and ants could Cultivate.

Little Green was also pitiful. It had Cultivated for so many years but hadn’t grown. It had to avoid even slightly larger rats.

Last time, it saw a grasshopper that was actually bigger than it. What a difficult snake life!

Lin Chuping smiled, extended a finger, condensed a bit of incense power at the fingertip, and tapped the Little Green Snake’s head.

He wasn’t sure if this incense power would be useful for monsters, but he would consider it an experiment for now.

The Little Green Snake’s nose suddenly caught a seductive snake scent, like the smell of burning incense, but distinctly purer.

It made the snake involuntarily lose itself in it.

The Little Green Snake unconsciously relaxed its body. By the time it came to its senses, this fragrant Divine Qi had already been swallowed into its belly.

Instantly, the Little Green Snake felt its mind suddenly clearer than ever before, as if a warm current slowly flowed from the top of its head throughout its entire body, all the way to the tip of its tail.

Its whole body felt as refreshed as if it had received a massage.

Most importantly, its body had actually grown a little bit.

The Little Green Snake raised its head in surprise, its eyes filled with disbelief.

“What… what is this?”

The Little Green Snake stammered, its voice trembling slightly.

It could actually grow!

Lin Chuping smiled slightly, withdrawing his finger.

“This is the power of incense, and also the Karma power of the temple. You stay here and help me with things, and I’ll use this as a reward for you. How does that sound?”

The Little Green Snake’s eyes widened, its heart filled with ecstasy.

Although it had Cultivated for many years, its progress had always been slow. This incense power was the Opportunity it had dreamed of!

“Thank you, Lord Deity! This little demon will do its utmost, I will do my utmost!”

Lin Chuping nodded, then his expression became serious, and he said, “Good. There’s one thing I need you to do right now.”

Upon hearing this, the Little Green Snake immediately straightened its body, its tail tip unconsciously perking up, looking eager to try. “Lord Deity, please command! This little demon will not fail you!”

Lin Chuping glanced at it, nodding with satisfaction.

It knew the Dao.

“Help me investigate the situation in Da Li Village.”

Last time, the Naked Ghost came from the direction of Da Li Village, and these two so-called immortal cultivators also had Da Li Village as their target this time.

Lin Chuping had a feeling: something must have happened in Da Li Village!

*

The Little Green Snake glided along the damp earth.

The Little Green Snake knew of Da Li Village.

Last time, it heard that the village chief of Da Li Village was marrying off his daughter, and the Rat demon couple was going to take the Opportunity to steal some oil and fat to nourish their newborn rat pups.

While the Rat demon couple was out, the Little Green Snake boldly burrowed into the rat hole and ate one of the rat pups.

That time, the Little Green Snake was chased by the Rat demon couple for a full five mountains.

Thinking of this, the Little Green Snake couldn’t help but flick its tongue, licking its lips.

Don’t tell me, newborn little rats are really delicious!

*

As it approached Da Li Village, the Little Green Snake slowed down.

Humans were very terrifying creatures. Once on human territory, it had to be more cautious.

“This place… is indeed not right.”

The Little Green Snake muttered to itself.

It remembered that last time it came, there was still some Life Qi in the village. Although Demonic Qi permeated the air, at least a few houses still had lights on.

But tonight, the entire village seemed shrouded in a thin mist, not even the moonlight could penetrate, and the surroundings were eerily silent.

“Hiss hiss!”

Where are the people? Where have all the people gone?

“Hiss hiss!”

No wonder the Lord Deity wanted me to investigate here. The Lord Deity is truly prescient.

Ah… bah!

The Lord Deity is a god to begin with!

The Little Green Snake circled Da Li Village three times, but still found nothing. No people, no monsters, only some mosquitoes and cockroaches.

The Little Green Snake wasn’t upset. It found a eaves and rested.

Running for so long, it was truly exhausted.

*

In its sleep, the Little Green Snake was startled awake by a fight. It stretched its neck, staring at the man and woman in black below.

“An Chen, what is the meaning of this?”

An Hui looked at the sword pointed at her neck, frowning slightly.

“The master ordered us to investigate the reason for An Thirteen’s disappearance. Are you trying to rebel?”

An Chen sneered, exerting a little force with the blade in his hand, and a trace of blood immediately seeped from An Hui’s neck.

“Rebel? An Hui, you’re too naive. This world belongs to the strong. Right now, I certainly don’t have the strength to rebel. But you can help me.”

An Hui’s expression changed slightly, and she felt a vague unease in her heart.

“An Chen, what exactly do you want to do?”

An Chen’s lips curved into a sinister smile, and a hint of greed flashed in his eyes: “What do I want to do? To take your cultivation. You have Cultivated for many years, and your cultivation is profound. If I absorb it, I will definitely advance to the third rank.”

An Hui’s pupils contracted, her heart filled with shock: “You… you actually want to absorb my cultivation? You’re mad! If the master finds out, he will never let you go!”
